A man would do nothing if he waited until he could do it so well that no one could find fault. ~ John Henry Newman

There is nothing called perfection for humans. Those humans who keep on learning from the day they come out from womb and till the day they die. Yes! even death is something new for their experience. They keep learning everything, they find new ways of failing. Isn’t it?

Humans are the most weird organism. They are just afraid of showing their worries and sadness. There is always this need to make a face or strike a pose. It is all so superficial. They are not comfortable for something but they pretend like everything is fine for no reason. May be they just don’t want to disclose their self insecurities or don’t want to share to make them feel bad. It’s just perspective. This is how they try to frame so called their perfect biopic.

They are like feeling so unhappy but surrounded by everything they really need. They don’t understand life is like a game of puzzle where you need to frame everything by your own imaginary picture. People are like pieces. There are zillion of possibilities. You just see them everyday, over and over again. You can make picture of luminescence of joy, where the pursuit of happiness ends with the end of rainbow. Everything is right behind them but they just can’t figure it out.

They are like feeling so alone but living in a big apartment full of people whom they never talk. Want to say something to someone but can not say for no reasons. They all need someone for their help and support. They are meant to be like can do everything alone but still it’s not practical for anyone. You need some delivery boy to bring your pizza when you’re tired from all your monotonous work and don’t want to cook anything in the kitchen.

They are just programmed to be a something called perfection. Life by many means is very simple smooth road without any destination but milestones that we mark for ourselves. But a smooth road is always boring to drive. They need thrills to make us feel we are alive. They need pot holes on our way. This is how they all get damaged. This is so blaspheme.

For a woman her beauty is what everyone defines. No matter what skills she have but without her beauty she is defined to be as incomplete personality. But still she is just a human. Her face, her skin is not immortal like her beautiful soul. She keep changes from her body every tick-tock. Cells are dividing, regenerating, mitosis-meiosis is happening. She is not in the same body as she was in 7 years before.

Her mirror sings:Now I am a lake. A woman bends over me,Searching my reaches for what she really is.Then she turns to those liars, the candles or the moon.I see her back, and reflect it faithfully.She rewards me with tears and an agitation of hands.

Her man sings:Ring the bells that still can ringForget your perfect offering.There is a crack in everything,That’s how the light gets in.

For him her so called flaws are just the way he loves her everyday for no reason. Because out of all the flaws he is stumbled on, it’s the hardest one to focus on. This is how life goes by. There should be no fear. It’s the rule of nature.
It’s always a point of view and here everything little thing is subjective. It’s simply want you want to see. It can be accidental or absolutely irrelevant for someone. There are always some messages to be ignored. It’s all about the prospective. They take it for fun, ignore it or take it so seriously.

Evidence shows that people of South Asian descent are at higher risk of high blood pressure and coronary heart disease (CHD). It has been predicted that people of South Asian descent are 30-40% more likely to die prematurely from CHD compared to the average UK population.(2,3) People of South Asian origin are also six times more likely to have diabetes than the average UK population, which doubles the risk of stroke (4) and are 3 -5 times more likely to suffer from end stage renal failure which can be exacerbated by high blood pressure – See more at: Salt and people of South Asian descent.
Indians consume about 3.7 grams of sodium, corresponding to about 9.3 grams of salt per day. This is nearly twice the amount recommended by the WHO. The positive side is that salt consumption has declined slightly in India between 1990 and 2010. There are major regional variations around this average.

Poor people use more of salt to make their small amount of food tasty. Rich get more salt through fast food and packaged food.

It is estimated that hypertension in India will rise from 140 million people in 2008 to nearly 215 million by 2030 with increased risk of premature heart attacks, strokes and kidney disease. A national salt reduction programme in India is set to target reductions in blood pressure, heart disease and stroke.

Evidence has shown that a number of health conditions are caused by, or exacerbated by, a high salt diet. Although the strongest evidence is for the effect that a high salt diet has on blood pressure, stroke and heart disease, there is also a wide body of evidence indicating a link between salt consumption and other conditions.
Salt has been linked to:
High Blood Pressure
Cardiovascular Disease (stroke, heart disease and heart failure)
Kidney Disease & Kidney Stones
Obesity
Osteoporosis
Stomach Cancer
Water retention/bloating
Salt is also thought to exacerbate the symptoms of:
Diabetes
Meniere’s Disease
Asthma
Alzheimer’s.

Indian Cuisine and Salt:

Indian cuisine in general, has excess salt. The reason being, Indian cuisine has a heavy load of spices, the spice levels in our food masks the effect of salt. Hence we keep adding salt about 40% more in excess than needed for a particular dish, when cooked sans those spices. This is the reason why in Indian cuisine we tend to add excess salt. Sometimes, people start adding salt even without tasting their food.

The next reason why Indians have excess salt in our food is that, our taste buds are tuned that way. If you gradually add less salt, your taste buds will adjust (it takes about 3 weeks) and you will not notice the difference.

Few food items in particular, that we consume on an everyday basis which has high salt content are:
Pickles, chutneys, sauces and ketchups, papads, chips and salted biscuits, savoury items, cheese and salted butter, canned foods (vegetables, dals & meats), bakery products, ready made soup powders, dried salted fish, Chinese food, salted nuts etc. Butter and ghee are both high in salt and fat. Cut these out of your cooking by replacing them with olive or rapseed oil, or use unsalted versions.

A reduction in salt consumption even by 1g in diet daily may help decrease the incidences of death, say University of California-San Francisco researchers at the American Heart Association’s 49th Annual Conference on Cardiovascular Disease Epidemiology and Prevention. The researchers say that a 3g a day reduction in salt intake could result in 6% fewer cases of new heart disease, 8% fewer heart attacks, and 3% fewer deaths.

Low sodium/salt: Less than 120mg sodium/100g of food or not more than half the sodium content of the regular food (whichever is less).
Reduced sodium/salt: Up to 75% of the sodium content of the regular food.Lightly salted: At least 90mg sodium/100g of food less than regular food and less than 600mg of sodium/100g.
Do not keep salt shaker on the dining table.
Choose fruits and vegetables as snacks, rather than salty snack foods.
Choose fresh, frozen or canned food items without added salts or of reduced salt variety. There are many products available with reduced levels of salt or with no added salt.
Select unsalted nuts or seeds.
Eat less salty foods like chips, pretzels, crisps, salted nuts, salty cheeses, soy sauce, pickles, Bikaneri bhujia, chicken broth, processed meat and fish.
Buy fresh, (plain) frozen or canned vegetables without added salt. Rinse canned vegetables to eliminate some of the added salt.
Select unsalted, fat-free broths, bouillons or soups.
Select fat-free or low-fat milk, yogurt and cheese with low sodium.
Add spices, herb, garlic and lemon juice in cooking instead of salt to enhance the taste and flavor of your food. Use only half the amount of salt recommended in a recipe.
Reduce eating pickles, they are high in salt.
Buy ready to eat meals with reduced salt. Do not buy packaged foods that contain more than 120mg of sodium per serving.
Avoid using sauces, such as mayonnaise and ketchup, as these are often high in salt.
Choose fresh or frozen fish, shellfish, poultry and meat most often. They are lower in salt than most canned and processed options.
Some drugs contain high amounts of sodium. Look for it.Source: Quora

Today breast cancer is one the most dangerous disease in women after skin and lung cancer among women. Etiologically depends upon geographical location, genetically, oestrogen access. It is more common in urban areas of India and developed nations. It’s more often in left breast than the right and is bilateral in about 4% cases.

As per statistics development of invasive breast cancer is 12% over the course of her lifetime of US women. About 25% of all cancers among women and causes approximately 20% of all cancer deaths.

In 2015, an estimated 231,840 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in women in the U.S., along with 60,290 new cases of non­invasive (in situ) breast cancer. Around 40,290 women will die from breast cancer.

Breast cancer is now the most common cancer in most cities in India, and 2nd most common in the rural areas. It is most common among post­menopausal women of 50­60 years of age. It is even possible to have development of breast cancer in men but it very rare for like 0.2% of cases.

source: breastcancerindia.net

For around 85% of breast cancers occur in women who have no family history of breast cancer. These occur due to genetic mutations that happen as a result of the aging process and life in general, rather than inherited mutation in genes.

There is no such way to prevent this breast cancer but sill there are few measurements that can lower the chances. It can be possible changing few risk factors that one can keep under it control by changing the lifestyle and diagnosing at earliest stage as possible.

1. Drink less or better avoid
Alcohol is not only destroys you liver and kidneys. It is also associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. So it is better to limit the intake to no more than one drink a day, regardless of type of liquor.

2. Avoid smoking

Smoking is often associated to COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) and Lung Cancer. But according to scientific researches that long­term smoking also increase the risk of breast cancer in some women due to presence of carcinogens.

According to research that increased physical activity, even when begun later in life, reduces the risk by about 10 to 30 percent. All it takes is moderate exercise like a 30­minute walk five days a week to get this protective effect. So it is better to stay fit, do workout, stay healthy and live healthy.

5. Breast feeding

Good news! If you’re a mother and have a recent delivery of an angel. You will be secure from breast cancer for a year with breast feeding your child. It not only acts as nectar for the baby but also there is some natural ability to get cancer by rid of this. Higher risk in unmarried an nulliparous women than in married and multiparous women. But also some women with first childbirth at the late age of over 30 are in greater risk.

6. Avoid Hormone Therapy

Long term use of OCP (oral contraceptive pills) has been suspected to predispose to breast cancer. Menopausal hormone therapy increases risk for breast cancer. If you must take hormones to manage menopausal symptoms, avoid those that contain progesterone and limit their use to less than three years. So avoid unless it has been prescribed by a doctor.

7. Have regular check­ups

If you are at high risk for breast cancer, such as having a particular gene like a BRCA gene, or have a strong family history or have had high­risk benign breast disease in the past, talk with your doctor about other options like mammography, MRI, xeroradiography, thermography, FNAC and ultrasound screenings.

Many of the times It is noticed that the patient comes at later stage of the cancer and it becomes quite difficult and less possibilities to cure it. It is always advisable to have regular check­ups in hospital. You need to follow­up and talk frankly this about to your doctor.

According to World Heath Organisation (WHO) unsafe food is linked to the deaths of an estimated 2 million people annually – including many children. Food containing harmful bacteria, viruses, parasites or chemical substances is responsible for more than 200 diseases, ranging from diarrhea to cancers.
This year on World Heath Day, the new campaign is for food safety. This is a shared responsibility. It is important to work all along the food production chain – from farmers and manufacturers to vendors and consumers.
So here are the five keys to safer food offer practical guidance to vendors and consumers for handling and preparing food as per WHO:
Key 1: Keep it clean
It is always necessary to clean your hands before handling, preparing and cooking food. Wash your hands after using toilet, with a good antiseptic soap. Wash and sanitize all the surfaces and equipment used in preparation of meal. And make sure you are protecting your kitchen areas and food from insects, pests, and other birds and animals. All the things above will let dangerous infectious micro-organisms away from food that are found in soil, water, animals and people. It usually carries through hands, clothes, utensils and animals.
Key 2: Separate raw and cooked food
It is recommended to keep raw and cooked foods separate reduces the risk of cross contamination. Cross contamination is used to describe the transfer of bacteria from sources such as raw meat or poultry, food handlers, animals and refuse to a high risk food, e.g. cooked meat products, dairy products, egg dishes (high protein foods). Hence you must keep separate utensils and containers for raw and cooked food.
Key 3: Cook food thoroughly
Some cooked dishes contain ingredients that may have harmful bacteria. Cooking foods thoroughly will help to destroy these bacteria. It is important to check that meat, chicken, fish or egg dishes are cooked thoroughly. Always eat fresh food and make heat above 70*C while cooking to make safer for consumption. Also keep reheating thoroughly time after time.
Key 4: Keep food at safe temperatures
Never leave cooked food at room temperature for more than 2 hours. It is recommended to keep in refrigerator below 5*C promptly all cooked and perishable food as it avoid micro-organisms for further multiply; although some grows normally. But keep in mind storing food too long even in refrigerator is not safe. As we all know serving main course hot makes it tasty but it also it slow down or even stops the growth of micro-organisms. So keep it piping hot more than 60*C before serving it.

Key 5: Use safe water and raw materials
In modern world it become must to have a water purifier at home now. Reverse Osmosis (RO) purifier is one of the best in market as dangerous micro-organism and chemicals in water is getting more common. Besides water, choose foods processed for safety, such as pasteurized milk. Prefer farm fresh wholesome food over canned and supermarket. Toxic chemicals may be formed in damaged and mouldy foods. Always wash and peel before eating it raw. Do not use food beyond its expiry or best before date.

Alright! everyone goes to super market to purchase the products of all your daily needs. As this is the place where you can get all the stuffs under one roof. Almost everything from groceries, deli, dairy, stationary, electronics, clothes, or even toilet paper. But there are certain things that you should keep in mind to be a smart customer. Because shopping in supermarket can be very beneficial or a trap as well. The whole supermarket is the concept is to make you buy their products that you never needed by display and sale. Here is the list of 20 things you should know before you shop smartly and wisely.

1.) Always notice the sale products in ad voucher and showcase:

When you first enter the super market you should be know about the good deals and sales. If not first notice that in the sale showcase of the day or week. This will make you very specific about your savings.

2.) Make a list of things you want to buy:

There should be a list of products you actually need it. Many people forget the things they came for as it is a place that can distract anyone. It can make you purchase the things that you don’t really wanted and things you really need. Be fix with your budget and move your cart quickly.

3.) Always keep your carry bag:

They are gonna charge you few bucks for a carry bag depending on the size. So it is smarter if you always keep couple of big shopping bags in your car. It not only save environment but also additional unnecessary thing in your house.

4.) Beware of almost getting expired or best before products:

Many times we have seen that the products that has been placed in the sale are either defective, almost getting out of date in a month or so. So be smart and check the manufacturing date first before putting it in your cart in excitement.

5.) Fresh Products always are in the back of cabinet:

You will always notice that the more fresh products are in the back of the less fresh products. It is simply way of putting goods in the supermarkets. As they want to make you sell out the least fresh product first as it will be best before soon. So be smart and put the product from the back of the row.

6.) Overpriced Organic food products:

Their is a separate counter in a supermarket where you will find food grains, pulses, spices etc in a special packing of organic level. These products are supposed to be said unprocessed and healthy. But for this you need to pay much more, sometimes even twice the amount of normal packing. These organic products can be purchased from farms and small shops in much less price. So it would be better if you avoid and pay less there.

7.) Keep away from the promoters:

There are two types of assistance in the supermarket. First are normal assistant and other are just sales men also known as promoters. They just get target to sell the product of which they are getting paid of by making you fool about other better products with higher sell. So never be trapped in their lies.

8.) Don’t be afraid to complain:

Many times we have seen that the assistants are not helping much. They might be flirting with other employees or having chit-chat funtime. If they are not able to help as your need. Never be hesitate to complaint against him to his manager. Even if the manager is not professional. Write an email to the company about the store.

9.) Alternative products of same type:

Many products of smaller companies. It might be worse in quality, some defect. It will never be as good as the original product. It will be definitely cheaper in price or even with buy one get one. So move away from that.

10.) Don’t waste time in moving your trolley:

Many times it is seen people spend way more time than they should in supermarket. There are a lot of stuffs in attractive display for making you buy more. So it is better to avoid moving your trolley smoothly and walk fast with your specific made up list.

11.) Don’t pay more for goods that are cheaper in other stores:

Usually it is seen that the cookwares and glasswares are cheaper in their specific store with more variety. Nappies, padding and cosmetics in chemist shop. Light bulbs in electric shops have more warranty and lesser price. These supermarkets just keep it for those who are lazy enough to go other than one roof. Don’t buy unless or until it is in great sale.

12.) Electronics section can be a disappointment:

These big supermarkets only get the specific electronic goods that they buy in bulk. You will not get much variety of models to choose from like you do in electronic showroom shop. Even in sale if you not specific about the model or compared with other brands, don’t buy it.

13.) Pre cut veggies and fruits are trap:

You might be an ravager cook. Takes time to cut vegetables and fruits, have no time as working person or just lazy enough to pay less for uncut food. These pre cut food is generally worse product of food. It has been cut so many stale or over ripen fruits and veg get also included in the packet. Because these stuff will never be sold if placed uncut and lose.

14.) Never buy fruits from the supermarket:

Remember that old 90s sitcom, Seinfeld show? That character Kramer said “Never buy fruits from the supermarket! The apples are mealy, the oranges are dry… I don’t know what’s going on with the papayas!”

Exactly these fruits might be worse than the local fruits shops. But if you are specific about apples. It might be better as in our hot summers in India. Apple should be stored strictly in refrigerator that is more possible in these supermarkets. But always check before you put in cart as it can be of months too.

15.) Avoid looking at the stuffs in the billing counter:

This the best place for customers to distract and make them put in their cart by supermarket. Chocolates, toffees, chewing gums, toys, or the snacks that are not selling. This is for kids who are getting bored and annoying their parents to put these stuffs more.

16.) Don’t hesitate to keep aside wrong products while billing:

Sometimes we put some products by mistake or some other customers think that this is their trolley and put products in it. Sometimes you realize that you already have alternative of it at your home. So always check that while billing and keep aside unwanted products.

17.) Always ask of parking ticket free offer:

At some certain amount of shopping many supermarkets offer you free parking ticket. So always ask the cashier about it during billing.

18.) Avoid cashier’s offer of some stupid card:

Many times in supermarket. The cashier asks for some useless smart card to purchase that will give you like 10 paisa per 1000 rupees you purchase. It is just a card to keep space in your wallet or purse. So simply avoid and move fast.

19.) Ask for free home delivery:

After some certain amount or you purchased a lot and it is difficult to carry by you alone. Ask for the home delivery option. Many supermarkets do it for free of cost. They will deliver at your home address all you have to do is keep a slip of that.

20.) Always check your bill:

It has been noticed that many times cashier do wrong billing as they put the same product twice or some wrong product code into your billing list. Many times it is of pricing of more amount and you buy smaller package. It could be computer generated mistake of price. So always check your bill as early as possible.

Camera, a device used to capture photographs for your memories. Traditionally by taking shots and save it in the photographic film. But today the most of the consumers shifted to digital cameras as the digital era arrived. Films replaced by memory cards, chemicals of lightroom replaced by computer software twitching of Adobe Photoshop.

In 2000s when the digital camera was new, normal consumers started purchasing compact camera for photography. Later in decade as soon as soon as these smartphones introduced in the market with excellent CMOS sensor camera but that were sub par. Now currently phones come with as big sensors as compact point and shoot much better in that much resolution of size.

In 2010s Consumers start focusing more in smartphones for day to day to day shots. For a camera companies start more focusing in High zoom bridge camera for all round performance for enthusiastic photography and starting range DSLRs for semi-pro quality within a budget.

And now a totally new horizon of Mirrorless Interchangeable Camera has begun. They are a replacement for consumers who are using an entry-level DSLR and like brilliant quality images with the interchangeable-lens feature, but want something that is lighter and smaller that can be quarter of the size of some DSLRs.

Buying a camera totally depends on the user. There are basically four types of camera buyer I have classified.

Beginners: If you don’t to be fuss around settings and just want to turn on and take images in automatic mode. For them I suggest to buy a good compact camera or an excellent camera phone will do the job. Apple iPhones, Samsung Galaxy, Sony Xperia are always the best options to go with without any thought. With overall top DXO scores. For compact cameras Sony Cybershot and Panasonic Lumix come with best quality lenses for compact users.

Wannabes: These are mostly for the young audience who want to be in photography enthusiastic in the world of photography. They just want to learn how to use the camera in different setting modes. For those users a high zoom bridge camera is perfect partner. As these types of camera will help you learn the basics of taking shots without spending money on interchangeable lenses. These camera are good enough for the macro photography to high zoom wildlife photography as a big telephoto lens is embedded in it

Entry level DSLR users: The buyer who knows all the basics of photography. Aperture, ISO, Exposure and Shutter Speed control for perfect shots in any lighting condition. This is the way to go with. As I have explained for those who don’t like to carry bulk around have now the option of mirrorless cameras.
There are three major brands in the world of interchangeable cameras: Nikon, Sony and Canon have options of different sets of lenses. These cameras support most but not all features of a professional camera like they don’t have full frame capable.

Professional High End DSLR users: These are the true professional photographers. It comes with all features till date for the premium photo quality images. They are full frame camera that means no framing while taking shots. Example 50mm lens shows exactly without getting cropped in frame. Much more powerful image processing, bigger and exclusive camera sensor. For that you need to pay in lacs with a good kit.

Their name isn’t actually Alt-J, it’s Latin symbol delta ∆ that is created by typing holding down the “alt” and “J” keys on a keyboard while using a Mac computer. You can pronounce it as alt-j as well.

Band is quite eccentrically cool about everything. Even with their past names. Originally Daljit Dhaliwal, named after British news anchor and then later The Film which they found a band of the same name in US. And hence alt-J.

The best thing about their style of songs is hat they can write songs on anything they love. It may be their favorite movie Léon: The Professional. Like they sung Leon and ‘Matilda’ based characters of that film. In the film, Matilda returns home from the grocery store to find her family murdered.

Again one more is “The Gospel of John Hurt” on the scene from the famous scene Alien (1979) where an alien burst out of John Hurt’s chest. This shocking sequence drives home the overwhelming nature of the narrator’s feelings. Fun fact is that it was written in the shower.

Song ‘Arrival of Nara’, ‘Nara’, ‘Leaving Nara’ is about supporting gay marriage and kind of saying ‘it’s ok if people want to marry people of the same sex as them because they’re not hurting anybody’. …people should be allowed to live like a deer in Nara, a town in Japan where the band visited once.

Their is one track ‘Every Other Freckle’ from their last album which is considered to be the most passionate and sexiest song of this generation. With lines like ‘You’re the first and last of your kind (Pull me like an animal out of a hole!) and ‘I want to be every button you press.’

For ‘Every Other Freckle’ song there are two versions of artistic music videos. One boy version with a hunky dude and other girl version with a next door beauty. You can check out online based on your sexual preferences.

The best thing about alt-J is about their gig. They are just made for entertaining crowd in their live performances. The crazy sounds with flickering lights on the setup will surely make anyone go gaga over it.

On the other hand for hunky players there are patterns of pin up bikini babes, stylish collection introduced by Bollywood stars Ranbir Kapoor and Ayushman Khurana.

I always have been a small town, upper middle class boy who lived obedienty most of the time in my life. Though I’m a mild yet aggressive young adult now. I am raised with good moral values throughout my childhood. So, I don’t understand why people are so much fretful and disobedient with all their bad habits. Like now I am talking about my summers vacations. I was in National Capital Reserve (NCR) for two weeks, staying at my cousin’s place Noida Sector 61. I applied for summer vocational courses in New Delhi to full-fill my passion for cooking and baking.

Initially I joined International Institute of Culinary Arts. It is located in Hauz Khas Village. So, for that I travel from Noida City Centre Metro Station, that was 4km away from Sector 61. It all started from the behavior of Autowale bhaiya. On the first day I took an auto, and the weird thing about Noida autorickshaw is that they don’t run on metre, demands independently. He asked me 50 bucks for that and after a cool bargaining I asked for 40 and he let me in. After reaching to noida city centre I gave him 50 rupees note and expect for the 10 rupees change. Just for that he started to abuse and humiliate me badly in the morning and how could I remain silent I also defended myself and somehow got my 10 rupees back. I mean how can be he behave so mean about it, if he agreed for 40 before I get in. No one behaves like that in other small towns where I lived. Later I got to know that fare of 40 rupees was proper, for the next these days because they calculate 10 bucks per kilometre.

Next was entering to metro station. Before telling you fulls story all I want to tell you that I never been traveled in metro railway before as most of the time I come New Delhi for 2-3 days and usually travel in car with my chauffeur. So the first thing I noticed is people. People, people, people.. everywhere people. Everyone in rush I never seen that much rush in my life. When people were using a lift to go upper floor of metro train, they must have to make certainty, a weight limit. It was clearly written that this lift is preference for seniors citizen and handicapped. When I got enter some more young adults like me entered after me and an old man remain left outside. Lift started to show weight limit exceeded and none of a single brat moved from his place like everyone is prince of their own kingdom. So I moved on, let that poor old man in and choose old fashioned stairs to move up.

I entered into the metro station. I was quite thirsty so I purchased a can of soda. Later to catch up my blue line train. I moved to ticket window and got a card with a balance of 80 by paying 100 (20 was security deposit). I was observing the crowd outside station as I said but never expected that mother of crowd in the waiting of blue line metro train. There were separate cabins for women as per women empowerment program by government and it was normally crowded and having comfortable sitting arrangement for them. Moving ahead to general cabins. All the heavy crazy crowd entered there just like when I was a child, I use to play musical chairs on friends’ birthday parties. All the working class men sit in their seats and weak seniors and other ladies remained standing like me, a newbie. Nobody cares about other. They all just plug their earphones in smartphones and play some stupid arcade video game like Candy Crush, FarmVille, Poker and many more. They’re all so mean and selfish and started to look me like these cans of soda, they all identical about their attitude and behavior. Like they never read about the lessons of morality and the values of karma.

I also observed so many of these youngsters who sit on their seats at the time when train is almost empty and do not stand up when they see any women or seniors who entered in next stations, looking for a seat. The most awkward thing was when they sit on reserved seats for women and senior citizens. Like how can they see them standing in the train. They’re all more like our family members. I am sure if they are their real aunts or uncles. They definitely stand and offer seat but just because they’re strangers, they’re so much ignorant.

When I use to return in the evening. The crowd gets even more, situation gets worse or say worst. Everyone just want to return in their home. So damn tired, smelly, and miserable. I never seen women stuck in such a way. Keep standing in between dense crowd of metro train. The crowd where you don’t have any space to put your feet a foot more. I have so much pity for them. It was more like an apocalyptic situation whoever enters in the train will survive and rest all going to die. In such condition pickpocketers and molesters always take advantage. Once in news I read 90% of pickpocketers and thieve are women travelling in metro trains. They just enter with a child acts like a normal Indian lady who is just going to some place. Eve teasers, molesters, harassers can be easily seen in these trains. They keep on starring at some innocent lady very viciously like they never ever seen any woman in life or they will just eat them, very disgusting scenario. Thanks to the government for these women reserved cabins, but sometimes some men just get enter from next general cabin by saying he is with her.

I mused, looked at the eyes of them and concluded why they are so mean to others.

When a child is born, he is an angelMore the life he lives more complicated he becomesHe is still the same boy who learnt to help others in school He is so damn much tired of living same monotonous life Like following to same path, each and every day on his long routeHe finds some short cut to reach faster and for this To get rid of the chains he is wrapped him in And yes he has hunger of love that made him so

I personally believe good things happen to you if you do good things to other. This create good karma, a inner happiness, no guilt, no regret and love. There are three major things that can ruin even a good person: Greed, Selfishness and Overindulgence. All the evil things brought up from these three qualities, if a person can keep control on these three he can sustain his great personality. Lies, stealing, breaking hearts, revenge, humiliation, assaults, addiction and many more are obtained by these evils.

There were four kinda flavor of cans (people) I noticed in these two weeks. 🙂

First are normal daily working class people who pick up and go to their office or place of work. They are veteran seat takers. Don’t much talk to others. Keeps a brief case/laptop bag and dark mustache. They have special power of sleeping when they take seats and get up exactly when their station comes. More like Thumbs Up.

Second are young adults who travel to reach school and college with flashy T-shirts and Jeans. They remain lost in the world of music, love or both. They don’t mind to become John Lennon & Yoko Ono and start making love in public. Usually seen with their girlfriend/boyfriend and smirk in their faces. 😉 They are Sprite.

Third are newbies are like who are new in metro and don’t have much idea about the stations and route. (Thanks to my smartphone metro station app which helped me a lot in such situations) They usually targets the veteran seat takers so that can release frustration of not getting their seat. More like Cuba drink.

Forth are typical dilli/punjabi women, the jibber jabbing. Holy mother of GuruNanakji! you can not see them to stop for couple of seconds. They usually travels with others to talk with. They will talk about anything and LOUD so that you can listen every detail of their sad life. They are more like Fanta.
